Custard Apple Milkshake | Sitaphal Milkshake

Step-wise picture recipe to make insanely delicious thick Custard Apple Milkshake at home. This Sitaphal or Custard Apple Milkshake makes for a filling snack or a refreshing drink for kids and adults alike.

So it's been raining custard apples (called as Sitaphal/Sita Pazham/Sitaphalam) everywhere and I laid my hands on some freshest, plucked right off the tree fruits recently. We love custard apples but strangely never bought them in the recent years, for reasons not known to us. As a kid I used to love these custard apples and it used to be so nice having these with my mom. Until I saw these juicy, delicious custard apples, I had even forgotten how these taste. The first thought that came to my mind was to make this Custard Apple Milkshake. I am not a huge fan of smoothies but then I give in once a while to make some delicious stuff at home, to beat the cravings. Check out the other cool drinks and smoothies/milkshake recipes on this blog.

Although I have had my share of tasting custard apples, I have never made Custard Apple Milkshake or Sitaphal milkshake at home. One of the biggest reasons being, separating the fruit pulp from the seeds. By the way, even eating these fruits is kind of a big mess but then it is well worth it. So I followed a little trick for separating out the seeds and it worked perfectly. It was messy sure but again well worth the effort given how delicious this Custard Apple Milkshake is.

As the custard apples were ripe, juicy and sweet, I had to add very little sugar and even that can be substituted for honey. This custard apple milkshake requires literally three ingredients - Custard Apple/Sitaphal, Milk and Sugar. Once the humungous task of extracting the fruit pulp is done, the actual process is a mere 5 minute task and this milkshake stores well in the fridge for 2-3 days. So make it ahead or better yet, freeze to use later.
